Perfect Vegan Men’s Shoes and Vegan Moccasin Options from Manimal

Do you have a male animal lover in your life? This would be a cool gift.

A new company launched with a great name that is called Brave Gentle Man (good name). It has clothes, bowties and most importantly vegan shoes for men.

They recently did a collaboration with the vegan shoe company Novacas and came up with some great mens shows that I think women, or rather I, would like to have as well.

They are made out of recycled materials.

You like?

Worker Black, $250

These remind me of a cool ll bean woodsman.

Also if you are a man, you will need shoes like these:

 

Mastermind, $250

great name.

and this is their full range.

Do you like them? I like that worker boot. I think that’s my style.

Now while I am posting let me alert you to another range of price-y vegan shoes.

There is this store called Save the Manimals. I love that name as well, except there are only two vegan shoes and the rest are the dreaded leather.

The problem is i have become fixated on these tan booties, if you will.

vegan fringe Ankle Bootie, $2oo

These have recycled tires on their soles.

Also in the sale section there are some cool vegan options but in limited sizes.

Vegan Saddle Shoes and Some Awesome Saddle Shoe Style Inspiration

Maya Villiger-Karyna
Forgot if I wrote about these before, but I recently bought a pair of saddle shoes from payless for $24 that I love.

Do you DARE to wear saddle shoes?

They could be seen as very Lolita-esque. But I think they are so cool and remind me of this whole thing I wrote about…Take Ivy style, 1940s and 50s style, prep school, cheerleaders, Vassar, and other cool things…in theory haha! In reality I went to a prep school and hated it.

Well, while google imaging Saddle Shoes for some style inspiration, I found an enormous amount of cool saddle shoe style inspiration. Now I am sold. The saddle shoe is a totally classic shoe, the sister of my beloved pennyloafer, according to the blog Take Ivy.

Here are some great photos to keep in mind if you chose to purchase a pair of saddle shoes:
